"Knock'em Dead" Black & Blue Cheeseburgers
Rial and I have been in the kitchen all afternoon making blue cheese burgers for his birthday party on Friday. While in the middle of it, he said, “I’m going to go get the camera, you can put this on your blog.” Why yes, I can. And so I am.
Blue cheese burgers are so yummy. They have the cheese built in and just enough tang to jump out and surprise your taste buds. They are also...

Stuffed Bell Peppers
I kind of just invented this last night using ingredients we had in the kitchen.
For the insides:
1. Put a pot of water on to boil. I used two bags of the boil-in-a-bag brown rice, but I’m sure you could just make rice the old-fashioned way, too.
2. Brown about half a log of sausage (like you buy in the grocery store) or about half a pound.
3. Chop up on medium onion and place in a...

White Cupcakes with Blueberry Icing
Um. Wow. These were truly amazing. I was worried at first making cupcakes from scratch, especially using a recipe calling for buttermilk. So so good. The cupcakes were just a White Cake recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook. The frosting I adapted from a recipe I found online.

Fried Green Tomatoes
Tonight for dinner we had a completely healthy vegetarian meal…not. While it was vegetarian, it wasn’t so healthy. Initially we were going to just do tomatoes on the side, but I got creative and decided to fry everything in my kitchen. Here’s how I did it:
1. Slice tomatoes, pickles, squash, anything you want.
2. Place 1/2c All-Purpose Flour, 1/4c Milk, 2 Eggs, and 2/3c...
Apologies
Sorry I started this and then haven’t posted. House is a mess and trying to get everything set up for a food blog. I’ve been cooking believe me. Made BBQ pizza, cinnamon rolls, and more. Tonight I’m making one of my specialties- Provolone stuffed meatballs with angel hair pasta and marinara. I’ll post the recipe as well as photos later tonight! (I hope). Remind me around...
